Dates to Remember
HOT, Humid, and a few tips to manage
The south is known for mountains, , football, and HUMIDITY. Temps are rising outside and there are a few things each store can do to help manage the heat this year. We do not want to intentionally add heat to the store for no reason.
-
Do NOT turn on any ovens or oven hood until 15 minutes before open unless you have a plan ahead order.
-
Only use 1 oven until you absolutely need another oven. If you do need a second oven on, try to limit the usage to only during peak rush/high product hours.
-
Do not turn on heating racks until needed. These heaters put out a ton of heat and WILL HEAT THE STORE UP QUICKLY.
-
When arriving at the store, turn thermostat down to 68 if it isn’t already set there and try to get the store as cool as possible. Make sure your oven hood is always turned off the night before as this prevents the store from cooling down properly.
-
Do not leave drive thru window or any front/back doors open as the oven hood will pull in a lot of heat from the outside.
Thank you Brandon Black for compiling these tips!
New Perfect Delivery Training Charts!
In some stores across our franchise, you may have seen or noticed some new charts popping up. We are rolling out new training charts for every location. These are a guide to keep track of how well-trained each employee is in each station. This is to help implement better standards, tracking development, a tool for GM's in the onboarding, and also fun competition!
The scoring begins at level 0 and caps at level 3. There are requirements for each level and are scored primarily by the GM or Area Director. We are focusing on accuracy and quality, not speed. This will help in many areas across stores, especially with cross-training, and giving clear paths of promotion/requirements for employees.
Throughout the next month to two months, managers will begin scoring of all employees to fill out the chart!

ALl ABout the Quality
Awesome job to the following stores for leading product quality! This is based off the AI system/camera right above every cut station. When a box is closed. AI technology rewinds the clock a second or two to capture a picture of the product and grade each pizza as a pass or fail. The key components are crust size and roundness (Looking for 1" crust), cheese distribution (no red edges or spots of missing cheese), and topping distribution. It counts the pepperoni so using the right amount every time. It takes everyone on the same page and everyone doing their part to produce high scores.
